program.)
2. The second stage of the lighting program is to be
started, and possibly the third stage. (The third
stage is quite expensive.)

date is spring.)
4. More sanitation facilities at the public beaches. (There
will be either a new facility at Goldsmith's Inlet or
Goose Creek Beach.)
5. Continuation of micro-filming the town records. (There
had been a contract with the County of Suffolk, but it
was necessary to stop as the employee doing the work
~_ was unable to continue due to civil service requirements,
so the board decided to wait until the town hall is
completed and continue on with the remainder of. the job.)
6. Continuation of the clam transptaut program
7. Continued progress on the new rec~eati~a-project at Peconic
for the senior citizens and youth. (If everything goes
well the second allotment is due us ($52,000.00) in late
January or early February.)
8. New monitoring system at the Town Disposal Area.
9. New joint study on waste water between the Village of
Greenport and the Town of Southo!d. (Study to be
conducted by McLendon, Holzmacher & Murrell.)
